Outdoor temperature affects how self-leveling the Dicor will be when applied. If I am in full sun at 70 degrees it levels out. If I apply it at lower temperatures in the shade it will not level out at all.
For the sides it is worth the extra effort to put blue masking tape on both sides of the seam. Proflex is difficult to get out in a consistent width and so I go over it with a spakling blade, let it set up a bit and then before it has fully hardened I will remove the tape. Proflex comes in white and clear and I would recommend the clear as no RV white will be the same as the Proflex white.
